I attempted to create a new document to save as a template with my preferred settings. I cannot overwrite the default.svg file without changing permissions on the /usr/share/inkscape/templates/ folder. This means that I cannot create and save any template and have it stored in the templates folder without changing permissions of that folder.
Current work around is to create a file and store it in my documents folder and open that instead. So from a usability perspective these things needs to be considered: 1. Create a document profiles system that a user can click on preferred settings in the document properties box. 2. Allow the user to create and save templates in an accessible area. Of course a user can do that now, but it is not all that clear on how that should be done especially with the New from Template option. It is a bit confusing. At a minimum an average user should not need root access or have to change folder permissions to create, edit, or save templates. Perhaps create a template SVG file format? 3. Include default document property option settings for program launch in the Global Inkscape Preferences menu. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1746652 Title: Document property profiles To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1746652/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
